ABOUT THIS SERVICE Rome Market and Gourmet Food Shop Highlights An insider's view of Rome and its culinary treasures Expert, friendly, fun guide for half day tour See parts of Rome few tourists explore Fresh local produce and products A real Roman market Delicious gourmet foods Rome Market and Gourmet Food Shop Tour Program The sites, sounds and smells of a traditional Roman market are something hard to do justice to in just a few short lines. The intense red of a vine ripe tomato, the encouraging shouts from one vendor to another, and the inviting perfume of a newly sliced round of pecorino cheese are all something that must be experienced to truly understand. This is your chance to be accompanied by a local gourmet food expert, Martina, who will greet your at your meeting point and walk with you through the ancient streets of Rome to a historic, bustling, brimming food market. Martina will lead you on an engaging tour of the market, as only a Roman local can. You will peruse the fish, meat and vegetable stands where you'll taste some delicious, fresh local fruits, or maybe some mussels straight from the counter. Martina will explain how the many ingredients you see have been used in Rome's culinary traditions over the centuries and how they still play an important part in the modern Roman diet. After the market, you will explore the nearby historic Jewish neighborhood food shops, with their many unique, traditional culinary products. The wafting, heavenly aroma of your next stop will hit you before you even cross the threshold; you are in one of Rome's most famous bakeries. You'll see (and taste!) an array of different breads, as well as other local treats like Roman pecorino sheep cheese, marinated anchiovies, and plump black and green olives. All this sampling calls for a refreshing glass of fine wine. Martina will introduce you to the world of Italian wine while having a lovely wine aperitif paired with the shop's specialties. Your tour ends in one of Rome's most traditional osteria, frequented almost exclusively by locals, for a chance to enjoy a memorable typical lunch. If they are in season, you can enjoy the fried artichokes that made this osteria famous!   What's Included in Your Rome Market and Gourmet Food Walking Tour An esteemed English-speaking wine and food expert as your guide (approx. 3 hours).
